It was very comfortable and neighbors were friendly and quiet!I appreciated the extras in the cabinets:kitchen supplies and coffee and tea until I was able to get to the storeThe ride over was snowy and slow so it was nice not to run out for those items!The only suggestion I would make is the comforter had a bit of a smell and maybe could use a wash? I took it off the bed and used the amazing blanket!

Place was very clean and well decorated. I had some minor concern about the floorboards being uneven under the laminate- this is a possible trip hazard. But the neighborhood was relatively quiet and I loved the view from the porch.

Last minute couple of days on the beach

The overall experience here was great. Justina was easy to communicate with. Check in process was easy, location is phenomenal extremely close to the beach, Less Than 3 minutes, and a short walk, less than 1 minute, from multiple restaurants / a convenience store It's definitely a small apartment more suited for 2 to 4 adults, looking to have a weekend to themselves with a place to crash while they take in the surrounding area, than it was for my family of five with three small kids but we made it work. I'd recommend renting here to anybody

Beautiful and clean apartment

We were traveling with our 1 year old puppy and this 2nd floor, renovated apartment was in a great location, just a block from the beach! Everything you could need was provided in this well stocked kitchen! We loved that everything was clean and new! We read some reviews and brought our own pet couch cover with us and that was perfect for keeping everything as clean as we found it! Didn't realize the apartment was on the second floor but the stairs were manageable.

Adorable Space

A great space for a weekend getaway with the spouse/partner! Cozy without feeling cramped, very nice kitchen space, comfortable bed. Nicely decorated and stocked with all the necessary basics. Our short stay unfortunately coincided with some unseasonably cold and wet weather, but it was the perfect place to hunker down and relax.Great location with a short walk to the beach and The Clambake restaurant (plus a few other places if you’re going in season). Nice view of the marsh out the back sliding doors.If you pack heavy or have any mobility issues, just be aware that it can feel like a good climb to this second floor unit.Unit owner was excellent to deal and communicate with. Was responsive when a minor issue arose and helped resolve it in a timely manner.
